We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of "Roland DG Assemble" at Morimar Composite Co., Ltd., a proposal-based company specializing in the press molding and processing of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP). The company felt limited by the use of paper and was looking for ways to simplify the recording, aggregation, and searching of work information. After the implementation, they were able to manage work performance through a dashboard, utilizing the performance data as materials for submission to clients. The most significant change was that the time spent creating data for client submissions was reduced to zero. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges - Struggled with recording, aggregating, searching, and storing work performance based on paper - Required significant time to create materials such as data for clients and production process charts ■ Effects - Work performance was digitized and automated, leading to a substantial reduction in manual input tasks - The use of the dashboard facilitated smoother communication with clients *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

This document explains the concept of "self-process assurance" and specific implementation methods to prevent the occurrence and outflow of defects. It details the necessary elements for self-process assurance, such as "clarifying the work process," "providing necessary information at the right time," and "being able to confirm that the work was done correctly." By implementing self-process assurance, improvements in product quality can be achieved, and reductions in inspection processes can lead to cost reductions and shorter manufacturing lead times.

This document analyzes the pitfalls of system implementation in manufacturing sites and explains effective implementation points centered around the site, data, and people. As successful cases of system implementation in the manufacturing industry continue to spread, there are not a few instances where the expected benefits are not realized after implementation. The main reason for this is the misconception of the system as a "silver bullet," leading to a loss of sight of its essence as a "means" to solve problems. We introduce the role of the system, the importance of people, and strategies for success, so please feel free to download and take a look.
